I had that exact problem in a basement of a new house. I think they poured it during the middle of summer and it got foamy. Dust galore. I ended up having to power-wash everything to one side and suck the water up with a shop vac. I got probably 80% of it cleaned up then used a clear concrete binding product before I laid down the epoxy and it worked well.The scrubbing part is what I'm trying to avoid. It's about 6k of square feet.
After pressure washing there's a layer of dust that I'm hoping a Enzyme product would eat up so I don't have to sweep.
Having a issue and need help.
The floors of the Warehouse have this layer of grime. I used my pressure washer with concrete cleaner and when it dried there's a layer of dust.
Does anyone know of a floor cleaner or a DIY enzyme product that will eat the grime? All the Enzyme products I seen are going to cost more than I can afford.

Excellenta old buddy of mine used to clean supermarkets at night with a big battery powered floor scrubber that weighed close to 1000 lbs
he could do the whole store in about 4 hours and they were a lot bigger than 6k ft
call your local rental stores and see whats available
fwiw
Diesel dust is exactly what it is. After talking to the people next door, the guy use to store heavy equipment and semi trucks in the Warehouse.That is diesel dust, from the trucks loading and unloading indoors. Had to clean it many times. ONLY ANSWER. Hire a steam pressure washer. Not just pressure washer, a steam powered pressure washer trailed on the back of a truck. Only way that gets clean, period.
3k for a where house, what a steal!
U ever try run to waste ?Got a lot of shit done last evening.
Took me 3 coats of epoxy floor paint to get good coverage on the shipping container. Took me 3 nights for 3 coats.
Got the green drywall hung, taped and mudded. Going to sand and paint the wall and door today.
Took about 3 hours to cut a 10" hole for the carbon filter and 2 trips to the hardware store to get the right tool.
Need to hang the brackets for the Gavitas, hang lights and tidy up electric cords.
Carbon filter needs to be hung, intake ports need to be cut in the floor. Going to have two 10" intake holes at each end.
Then the Reflectix needs to be hung. Hoping I can get this done today.
Tomorrow, the tables should be going in. The irrigation lines ran and plants finally in their home.
Decided to play around with Rockwool slabs. Haven't decided on DTW or recirculating drip on a timer.
Going to run the Veg+Bloom 4/1 and it should crush it.
Ime no project is complete without the obligatory trip(s) BACK to Home Depot. Cue the spitting and cursing...
What tool did you end up using to cut the holes?
Passive intake/exhaust old school. Going to take advantage of the cooler temperatures. With the size of the Warehouse, I should have plenty of cool air.How many lights in there and you just going to circulate the air no ac? Looks awesome

Harbor freight high speed air saw. It's like a mini saws all.
I had to drill a bunch of holes about 1" apart, this really helped at making it round instead of jagged like it started.
I first tried using a 3" cutoff wheel and that didn't do shit.
I was going to use reflective Styrofoam but they didn't have enough and I didn't want to wait or drive elsewhere.Why did you choose Reflectix over something like the rigid Styro sheets, either white or Mylar-backed? Just curious, because I've priced out the Reflectix and found it a bit too rich for my blood.
